That fish at the top is a twin spot hogfish. I would recommend it for any reef tank. Had one years ago and was one of my favourite fish. Yeah, with that coral, I couldn't believe when it started turning red, and then the tips got blue .

Keep in mind I know nothing about white balance, aperture etc....so the colours are off and it's tough because the tank is viewable from both sides so it's hard to take pictures.

My tank is pretty good for jumpers, there is only one real spot on the wavy sea nozzle side of the tank where they could sneak out....I was thinking about sealing it off, but haven't gotten around to it. I have 4 wrasses and it's quite a peaceful community, so no real stress. I love wrasses. I wouldn't mind finding one a different colour.

I'm excited to be back in the land of salt (but I'm not sure my wife is). I'm constantly getting more frags and trading frags that she want to limit me one dedicated day a week where I can have people over or go to someone's house to trade frags.

I love watching them grow man. Or looking at pictures a month ago and saying "wow, I didn't even think that grew, but I got 1/2" of growth!"

PS, did you like the skimmer pictures I posted in your thread?

go to michales or someplace and buy enough heavy black fabric to cover one side. makes a world of differance and black also enhances your colors more.
